How to play the accordion at 185mph with Mario Andretti by Peter Windsor
0World Champion accordion player, Cory Pesaturo, is drawn to new challenges. He's already in the Guinness Book of Records for playing the longest non-stop live music session (at over 32 hours, in an event run by Red Bull). Nothing compares, though, with the feat he attempted on Monday, June 30, 2022 - the day after the running of the Indy 500: he would sit in Mario Andretti's IndyCar two-seater and play the accordion while lapping the Speedway at 185mph. Mario loved the idea - as Cory recalls in this video with Peter Windsor - and, yes, they made it happen. Here's how.
With thanks to Cory Pesaturo
